Rate-determining step — The rate determining step (RDS) is a chemistry term for the slowest step in a chemical reaction. The rate determining step is often compared to the neck of a funnel; the rate at which water flows through the funnel is determined by the width of… … Wikipedia
Product-determining step — The product determining step is the step of a chemical reaction that determines the ratio of products formed via differing reaction mechanisms that start from the same reactants. The product determining step is not rate limiting if the rate… … Wikipedia
Rate equation — The rate law or rate equation for a chemical reaction is an equation that links the reaction rate with concentrations or pressures of reactants and constant parameters (normally rate coefficients and partial reaction orders).[1] To determine the… … Wikipedia
Reaction rate — Iron rusting a chemical reaction with a slow reaction rate. Wood … Wikipedia
Committed step — In enzymology, the committed step (also known as the first committed step) is an effectively irreversible enzymatic reaction that occurs at a branch point during the biosynthesis of some molecules.[1][2] Contents 1 What it means … Wikipedia
reaction mechanism — Introduction in chemical reactions (chemical reaction), the detailed processes by which chemical substances are transformed into other substances. The reactions themselves may involve the interactions of atoms (atom), molecules (molecule),… … Universalium
Enzyme kinetics — is the study of the chemical reactions that are catalysed by enzymes, with a focus on their reaction rates. The study of an enzyme s kinetics reveals the catalytic mechanism of this enzyme, its role in metabolism, how its activity is controlled,… … Wikipedia
Reaction mechanism — In chemistry, a reaction mechanism is the step by step sequence of elementary reactions by which overall chemical change occurs.[1] Although only the net chemical change is directly observable for most chemical reactions, experiments can often be … Wikipedia
Catalysis — Catalyst redirects here. For other uses, see Catalyst (disambiguation). Solid heterogeneous catalysts such as in automobile catalytic converters are plated on structures designed to maximize their surface area … Wikipedia
Lindemann mechanism — In chemical kinetics, the Lindemann mechanism, sometimes called the Lindemann Hinshelwood mechanism, is a schematic reaction mechanism. Frederick Lindemann discovered the concept in 1921 and Cyril Hinshelwood developed it. [ [http://www.chem.iitm … Wikipedia
